Chapter 7

• My heart doesn't stop drumming fast against my chest as I drink in the shadow that allures before me, green eyes fix on nothing else but me. The book I'm holding tightly to my chest seems to be losing its stance as my lips quiver in an attempt to let out a call of his name.
• "Sinclaire?"
• I call more like a question and he lets go of my shoulders before stepping back fully into the light, his eyes moving across my stance before he finally settles that intense gaze back on me.
• "What was that shit that just happened there?"
• He heard that. He heard everything, Heard my pathetic existence being mocked! Just when I thought I couldn't get more embarrassed before this man.
• "N--nothing! What did you hear?" I try to divert his attention but he seems to realize what I'm trying to do because he directed his eyes and fixed them towards me. And I don't think I can be very more thankful when he chose to let it go instead Vincent mentioned that you are acting weird, so I decided to check on you so you can tell what bothers you!".
• He says taking a space closer to close the little gap that exists between us, also quicken my breath with that one step! Damn my body's reaction to this man's presence.
• It's funny he even knows about it! He was drunk off his ass when I left this morning. I tell him and he chuckles with a nod of his head. I don't miss the way his eyes brighten a bit more as the sound falls effortlessly off his lips.
• "He has his way , I heard from him and I don't just want to believe that it's isn't because of me." He once again raises his brow at me and I give him a confused look! But that's until I realize he was speaking about last night!
• "Oh that?" I stutter awkwardly. Shifting in my stance, I suddenly don't want to be here anymore as the memory of what went down last night filled my head.
• You don't have to worry about that! I don't know what the hell got into me to have made me utter such stupid things. I promise it won't repeat itself again!"
• I give him a bright smile but he only stares at me as if I'm sort of a science experiment he is trying to figure out! Then he breaks into a laugh. A short beautiful sound that resonates deep into my mind even after he stops.
• "You still amazed me, beautiful and innocent Abigail." His eyes shoot out to my head and he raffles my hair making my heart flutter with that just one innocent touch of his!
• What is wrong with me? What the hell has gotten over my stupid mind? God see me through this I don't want to keep being stupid and pathetic.
• "I would love you to re-address the issue to me at my place after school. I hope you don't mind little Abigail Diamond!"
• He is inviting me to his place all alone? My goodness, this is unbelievable, how will I escape the temptation?
• Get those silly thoughts off your mind and Abigail, he is inviting you to find out about what happened no wanting to do anything immoral with you.
• "Your place?" I croak out anyways, hoping he doesn't notice the nervousness in my voice and he nods. "Yes my place Abigail, anything wrong with that.?" I quickly nod my head to his words and sinclaire chuckles before leaning back against the wall opposite me, arms crossed against his chest as he sternly fixed his gaze on me! A very uncomfortable silence filled the air as I shifted in my stance at every other second feeling so awkward under his intense gaze.
• "You should go to class prince Abigail Diamond, you do want your teacher to think you are slacking"
• I want to tell him that missing one period won't make them think so but make them very worried and disturbed about me! Then I firgure out that he is only my joking.
• "Yeah that's right! School class focus." I blabber rubbish, internally cursing at myself. Sinclair let out a soft chuckle , lifting himself off the wall and once again disrupting my personal space. But I'm I complaining about that? Not even in my next life.
• "Get to class little Abigail."
• He begins to shove me out the door but I abruptly stop in my tracks to remind him of something! "Don't hurt him please!"
• Sinclair's Jaw clenches when he realizes the person I'm referring to! And he quirks his brows at me "why shouldn't I? He is nothing but a piece of shit!
• "He was my boyfriend." I tell him in a small voice while staring down my shoes and playing with my fingers.
• "He didn't deserve to be, you are very beautiful, intelligent and hardworking! You deserve better than an ashole Abigail." Abigail! The way I love and appreciate it when he calls me by my name!
• "I loved him!" I tell him again, still not meeting his gaze. I know the forcity I will meet there if I dare it. I shouldn't be protecting Alvin, I should let Sinclair beat the hell out of him! He deserve to be treated like a killer for cheating on me and for having the nerves and guts to publicly humiliate me.
• But I don't want him to get hurt either, no matter what he has done to me he still means a lot to me, even if it was all a game, being with him means something to me.
• "Is that what you truly want?"
• He asked and I nodded without meeting his gaze! "This is what I want and I Don't want my brother Vincent to have an idea about this either!" He is going to take this far more personal than even Sinclair is! He will not listen to what I say until he makes sure Alvin pays for everything with his own blood! That's the last thing I will ever rush for!"
• "Alright Abigail, I will not hurt him neither would I tell Vincent about this ! But I can't promise you that I will be able to control myself or even give I'm a second thought before skinning him alive if he dares crosses my path!
• I raise my gaze to meet him, opening my mouth to say something but the glare Sinclair gives me speaks clearly that he doesn't want to hear anything!
• "Thank you so much, I really do appreciate it!" I tell him calmly and he nods! "I should get going, I will see you later Abigail!" He grabs me by my hand , pulling me to him to graze his lips over my forehead before letting go and walking out of the room! I stand there frozen, mouth hangs open, from the innocent touch that I somehow think intimate. I.AM.NOT.OK!
